Aló Django is a Galician band that takes its inspiration in jazz, in galician music and in the traditional music of the "manouches", the Central European gypsies: the so-called Gypsy Swing, a cheerful, lyrical and acoustic style whose most popular figure is the well-known guitarist Django Reinhardt.
Furthermore, Aló Django has a theatrical sense of its show, with the presence of the tap dance, stand-up and comic interaction with the audience, so that music is threaded with other scenic genres as cabaret or music-hall.
To sum up, with Alo Django we have as main objective to disseminate the "manouche gypsy music" through a concert with a lot of Swing and humor. If you think jazz is boring, maybe you haven't heard us yet, so... give us a try, unstick your shoes from the ground and dance!
